Shazia Kirmani is one of the contestants on Bravo's interior design reality competition series, "Top Design 2." Shazia Kirmani is from Plano, Texas. Shazia Kirmani is 30 years old.
Born in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, Shazia Kirmani was part of the first generation of American born children in her family. From a very young age her father pushed her to become a doctor, but after her first semester at The University of Texas at Austin studying Biochemistry, Shazia Kirmani realized she was more passionate about redesigning her bedroom than anything that was going on in the classroom. Upon graduation, Shazia Kirmani accepted a position at the Gap as a visuals specialist, where she finally found the direction she needed. At the age of 25, familial and societal expectations thrown to the wind, Shazia Kirmani entered The Art Institute of Dallas studying Interior Design. Three short months after graduation, she was awarded a contract with a multi-billion dollar healthcare services company and from there she started her own company, Egospace Interiors, Inc. Shazia Kirmani is inspired by everything: the environment, politics, fashion, etc. Shazia Kirmani prefers her designs to be functional, with a touch of contemporary edge. In 2006, her apartment was recognized in Dallas' D Home and Garden Magazine and she was named the 'It' gal of interiors. Now at 30, Shazia Kirmani is as successful and ambitious as ever. Her company is growing and she is taking on commercial/residential rehabs and clientele such as The Trelivings, whose patriarch, Jim Treliving, is star of CBC's Dragons' Den and owner of Boston Pizza International. By staying true to her deepest desires, whether business or personal, Shazia Kirmani has mastered the ability to take on any challenge without letting fear of the unknown stand in her way.
